Title: Season 13 (Japanese) Season Signup
Post by: Wally on July 17, 2016, 11:49:46 AM
Season 13 features rounds of 3, 20 minute, reverse grid sprint races in selected cars from the Japanese Pack (DLC).

Cars
Cars are ballasted (RX-7, 145kg and 370z, 115kg) for parity. You'll have to swap between the two groups (RX-7 or 370z, swapping to Supra or Skyline and vice versa) half way through the season to balance out any unfair advantage that might creep in due to the ballast.

Season Schedule - starts August 2
R1: Aug 2, Paul Ricard WTCC, 3 x 11 laps [VERSION 0.9.7 DOWNLOAD (http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/paul-ricard.6115/)]
R2: Aug 9, Tsukuba (Long), 3 x 18 laps [VERSION 2.0 DOWNLOAD (includes OSRW pit mod) (https://www.dropbox.com/s/xfeubnjuulkxw3m/tsukuba_circuit.zip?dl=0)]
R3: Aug 16, Brands Hatch Indy, 3 x 21 laps [OSRW PIT MOD (http://www.mediafire.com/download/9taj1vp9scwpx0u/Brands_Hatch_GP_Indy_32pits_AC1.7.rar)]
R4: Aug 23, Imola, 3 x 9 laps [OSRW PIT MOD (http://www.mediafire.com/download/v27gtik5a3eaaam/Imola_32pits_AC1.7.rar)]
-- Mandatory car Swap (RX-7/370z <-> Supra/Skyline) --
R5: Aug 30, Baskerville, 3 x 16 laps [VERSION 0.8 DOWNLOAD (http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/baskerville-raceway.3436/)]
R6: Sep 6, Silverstone International, 3 x 15 laps [OSRW PIT MOD (http://www.mediafire.com/download/sht62uynkd02u1s/Silverstone_all_32pits_AC1.7.rar)]
R7: Sep 13, Magione, 3 x 14 laps [OSRW PIT MOD (http://www.mediafire.com/download/8y9777ekb4chu4o/Magione_32pits_AC1.7.rar)]
R8: Sep 20, Eastern Creek Druitt, 3 x 16 laps [DOWNLOAD (https://www.dropbox.com/s/lor4fm3jpwx15d4/Eastern%20Creek%20Raceway%202014%20v3.43%20a%20R1CHO%20by%20Rainmaker.7z?dl=0)]

Race 1 prac/qual starts at 8:30pm Eastern time, and there is usually a long practice session before that, starting from around about 6:00pm.

Round Format
Each race is a full reverse grid race with no qualifying sessions (only round 1, race 1, has a qualifying session to set start order for that round). Each race in other rounds is in reverse order of championship points standings.

Fuel and tyres are 1x and there are no compulsory pit stops.

Start Lights
We'll use AC's new jump start detection, with a drive through penalty enforced by the game that must be taken in the 1st 3 laps. The PLP start lights will NOT be used. You will need to make sure you have the latest PLP app downloaded HERE (http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=758.msg28218#msg28218) to turn the PLP lights off.

Points
Points in each race are 24, 23, 22 down to 1.
Fastest lap in each race gets a 1 point bonus.

Penalties
Every opening lap major infringement (e.g. avoidable rear hits, unsafe track re-entry causing accidents etc), will be awarded 90 kg of penalty ballast for the corresponding race of the next round (90 kg is approximately 10 seconds over the whole race, but the time lost will vary from track to track and car to car).

Weather
Weather will be taken from the local circuit forecast on each actual race day. Races are at 10:00am, 1:00pm and 4:00pm in game time.

Track grip will simulate rainy conditions:
Damp track - 85% grip
Wet track - 75% grip
Very wet track - 65% grip

Do we choose which of the 2 cars we switch to mid-season? If so it's the 370z for the 1st half and the Supra for the rest.  ;)

No, you don't have to choose the second half car yet. I'll be asking again at the time.

Just to be clear, if you start with the Supra, you'll have to switch to either the RX7 or the 370z  mid-season.

@Phil..totally opposite feel for me. Hated the GT86, felt too tight and just couldn't get it to work. These are far more suited to me. Not that I'm real quick, just more fun.

I think these cars are a lot more lively on track than the GT86, and the different cars on track will all have their strengths and weaknesses while remaining close.
Title: Re: Season 13 (Japanese) Season Signup
Post by: Rolz on July 18, 2016, 01:56:39 PM
The RX7 has the  power/weight ratio that the GT86 should have been supplied with but sadly was not...

Was like when I had my MR2... I bought the Aussie delivered NA version... when I finally did the Turbo conversion and kicked myself that I'd taken so long to pull my finger out and do it. :P

Just had a couple races with QC at The short version of RBR, I think the best layout for racing in these so far. Amazing bunch of corners where you can pass anywhere but also so easy to make a slight error to get passed back.

I wonder if race format could be qualy each round and race 1 regular order with race 2 and 3 being season revers grid. That way we will get a bit of both styles but you could also make race 1 the shortest if that was the case as these do tend to be more boring. So probably in the end all reverse season may be best and disregard all I said. :)

4 months off have made me very rusty so I hope to receive some assistance, possibly a tow from Marty.

Imola (added 8 pit boxes, total 32)
Brands Hatch (GP and Indy) (added 8 pit boxes, total 32)

Hi Wally, I did not really try the cars, sorry, but I'll go for the RX-7 thingy,... I like the sound a lot. I think I'll pick the supra with the vaguely rifle-like name for the second part.

Just jumped on the server with the 370 and it has no ballast. Supposed to be 110kg isn't it?

115kg

If you want, you can set the ballast yourself with these commands in the chat window:

/admin ......... (the usual password)
/client_list (to get your client number)
/ballast <clientNum> 115

I will double check the server as possibly there could be an error with a car. I checked the entry list and the first 370 had no ballast, all fixed now so you should be a bit slower in that 370 now.  ;)

Okay, with that being said, and after 10 laps of testing, it appears to be the slowest car. Atleast I'll have the better sounding car compared to everyone else right? :o

Its actually the fastest car in the prac server atm, there isnt much in the laptimes of all 4 though but the rx7 is not likely to be the slowest anywhere.  :)

Prac server also has variable grip levels so you can check what grip times were set at. 1% more grip is around 1 seond in laptime at least so if you ran in lower grip levels take that into account. Any times under 1:46 will get you in the top half of the pack I think.

And with the mixed bag of tracks in the season, some cars are bound to be stronger at different tracks.

Hopefully people at the back show enough care passing the slower guys, it may take some more patience and possibly you will be held up but it is racing for position. The guys ahead arent being lapped and have the right to the racing line. All behind need to find a way to cleanly pass those that start ahead in reverse grid races, the only thing that the slowers should try to avoid is turning in too late when someone has already got inside them.

if all try to leave racing room for overlapped cars then the season will be more fun then people getting pushed off the road all over the place.

 Just have to be careful where you make your moves. I've been having some great side by side racing here with minimal contact. Near impossible to pass and easy to defend through turns 1-4. Sitting ducks after that if you're way slower like myself. ;)

all good, I am a generous racer!  I watch Helicorsa like a hawk, and peeps don't dive bomb here so you will have plenty of opportunities to overtake me, more likely earlier than later! :)

RX7 for me Wally  ;D

You must be waiting for the next one Rolz, that RX7 of yours is rusting away pretty badly.
